I have started a small business while working for a mega corporation. So far, I like the small business feel. I feel as though I owe it to my employees to not make the mistake that managers and bosses in the big companies commonly make.

Nice post!

Love your article about small business. Totally agree with you. I tried a small food business a few years back. Absolutely enjoyed it. Stopped for a while but intending to start again.

My parents wanted me to go into science and engineering so badly. I majored in English instead.

Somehow I still managed get a job managing the content division of a great start-up company, which is really where I got my start as an entrepreneur ... funny the way life works out. Never know where opportunities will pop up.

Excellent post --

I can definitely relate, it took me a while to realize that although I liked science & engineering, there were opportunities I was looking for that a job in these field would not provide. Frequent interaction with great people, the ability to give a service and impact many people and organization, etc. I find it to be a thrilling experience, rather than a boring job.
